Music, Recorded music, Playing music, Live Music, Concerts, Music is always fun. I like seeing shows at small and medium sized venues as well as arena & stadium stuff but am just as much into hanging out at bars or clubs that play great music or book good live acts. Also perfectly content if the place just cranks killer tunes or has a juke box and a bar. Travel (love jumping on a plane and building those frequent flyer miles), Playing Drums, NFL Football (I'll watch anything NFL) but I am a huge Raider fan who flies to one or two games each season and since the early 90's has caught EVERY other single game on TV. And best of all... They may not SUCK this year! I like attending other live sporting events also and having some beers (Raiders, Arizona Cardinals, Lakers, Dodgers), I like Reading, I like a great sports bar in the day, or a good Hollywood dive-bar at night. Lots of character in those places. Sometimes a nice club/bar/restaurant. Lakers or Dodgers or Suns on TV with the sound turned completely off and great music cranked way up. Hiking (prefer if rock-climbing is involved and way into little hidden, trails totally off the regular path. But then again, anything will work, just gotta get outside and take advantage of this stunning LA climate), I like Guinness, Jack and Coke, Dos Equis Amber, Absolut-Tonic, Cabo Wabo Tequila (and I like them a lot), Good Movies- try to avoid most of the real mainsteam, studio formula stuff. Finding interesting or funny articles on the Net and E-mailing them to friends, IRL racing (Indy Cars)- not too much into Nascar. 3 Par & Executive course Golf, Playing Texas Hold Em Poker with friends or Online, Blackjack a few times a year (more into Tahoe now than Vegas, but I LOVE Vegas and I Love Downtown Vegas), The occasional skiing trip (I only ski, cannot snowboard), Camping trips, (local-The Point Mugu/Ventura stuff- remote-Yosemite) In the summer, catching a little sun at the beach, usually Santa Monica, Topanga or Malibu/Zuma and doing some body-boarding, UFC Fights, playing pool is fun but I don't get to do it much, and a lot of times the best is just hanging out at friends homes and having some drinks, talking about whatever, listening to great music, checking out some major televised sporting event or movie or occasionally, watching something else interesting or funny on TV or just highlights of stuff on YouTube.
My good friend Tim made this site for me one day and sent me a link and a password. I just filled in answers to the questions and picked the song. I guess I'll see what happens next.
